Authentic $2.50 Indian Head Gold Coin in 14kt Rope Coin Frame Pendant

الوصف

What sets the $2.50 and $5.00 Indian Head 14kt gold coins apart from other United States coins is they were the first (and only) U.S. gold coins to use a technique known as incuse relief. This technique gives the design elements and lettering a sunken-in appearance on a uniformly flat plane. The sculptor, Bela Lyon Pratt, was recommended to President Theodore Roosevelt by his good friend Dr. William S. Bigelow to design the $2.50 and $5.00 Indian Head Gold coins.Obverse: Pictures an Indian Chief, the first true American Indian ever to appear on United States coinage. Previously, Caucasian models dressed in American Indian attire were used. The chief on the Indian Head is wearing a full-feathered headdress with the word 'Liberty' inscribed on the headband. A border of thirteen stars and the minting date encircle him.Reverse side of the $2.50 coin features a proud bald eagle standing among olive branches, surrounded by the words 'UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.' The motto 'In God We Trust' and the denomination also appear on the reverse.This gorgeous and inspired gold coin pendant is a unique, thoughtful, and exceptional pendant which will be worn beside the heart day after day for years to come, making this a generational treasured keepsake. With all of that, plus the price of gold rising daily, makes this a great invest all the way around.Thank you for shopping with The Men's Jewelry Store, we appreciate your business.
